TUSCALOOSA -- Mal Moore's legacy as the University of Alabama athletics director includes the recent football national title and facility upgrades for football, basketball, baseball and other programs.

It appears it will also include at least a few more years.

A deal is in the works that would extend Moore's contract beyond its current expiration date of June 30, 2011, according to multiple sources. Discussions have taken place for the 70-year-old Moore to stay in his current role perhaps through 2014, though any extension needs approval from the UA System Board of Trustees.

"It's been generally discussed," said one source close to the situation, "but I don't think there's anything concrete yet."

UA president Robert Witt signed an amendment March 5, 2008 to Moore's contract, increasing his annual salary to $425,000 and adding a year to the deal that initially began when Moore was hired in November 1999.

Moore has said he has no plans to retire, telling the Birmingham News last fall, "I feel good. I want to be involved a while longer. I can't say a year, two years or five years. I enjoy what I'm doing."

A former assistant football coach at Alabama for Paul "Bear" Bryant and Gene Stallings, Moore led UA's football program through the dark days of NCAA sanctions last decade while also directing a $125 million facilities campaign. Facility upgrades have been conducted for nearly every sport on campus in recent years, including two projects to expand the end zone seating at Bryant-Denny Stadium.

Crimson Tide athletics reported revenues of $103.9 million in 2008-09 compared to expenses of roughly $81.8 million, according to figures from the U.S. Department of Education. Of those revenues, more than $64.6 million came by way of the school's football program.

The university also announced in May a seven-year, $30 million extension with Nike that will pay UA a minimum royalty of 12 percent on the sale of Alabama-logoed merchandise produced by the company.

Moore currently works in the renovated Mal M. Moore Athletic Facility. It houses the offices of Alabama's football staff, including head coach Nick Saban. Under Moore's direction, Saban received a raise and contract extension prior to last season that takes the coach's deal through 2017.

Meanwhile, the final touches are being put on the south end zone expansion to Bryant-Denny Stadium that will bring seating capacity to more than 100,000 in time for the Sept. 4 season opener against San Jose State.

There are no future projects on the radar for Bryant-Denny after the current expansion is completed. But work continues on a practice facility at Coleman Coliseum for Alabama men's basketball team and the modernization of historic Foster Auditorium, which is to house the Crimson Tide women's basketball and volleyball programs. Alabama's baseball facility, Sewell-Thomas Stadium, also recently received interior upgrades that include a new players' lounge.

Witt was not available for comment today.

Moore has long retained Witt's unwavering public support despite sanctions handed down by the NCAA as a result of UA's self-reported textbook investigation.

"I have 100 percent confidence in Mal Moore," Witt said soon after the NCAA's decision. "I believe we have the finest athletic director anywhere in the country."
